Kind

Lyrics

• Verse 1

  Sometimes marriages don’t work
  And sometimes babies die
  Sometimes rehab turns to relapse
  And you’re left just asking why
  And for all the prayers I’ve prayed
  I still wonder if He’s real
  And if He is how is He choosing
  Who He does and doesn’t heal
  

• Chorus 1

  I’ve tried to run from Jesus
  I’ve started holy wars
  I’ve tried the patient waiting
  And the kicking down the doors
  I’ve cursed His name in anger
  With my fists raised to the sky
  And in return all He’s ever been is kind
  

• Verse 2

  And I’ve burned my share of bridges
  I learned to tuck my tail and run
  I watched the wreckage in the rear view
  From all the crooked things I’ve done
  And I know that He forgives me
  But it’s hard to forgive myself
  I can’t help but think amazing grace
  Is for everybody else
  

• Chorus 1

  I’ve tried to run from Jesus
  I’ve started holy wars
  I’ve tried the patient waiting
  And the kicking down the doors
  I’ve cursed His name in anger
  With my fists raised to the sky
  And in return all He’s ever been is kind
  

• Verse 3

  And I know I wasn’t there
  But when I look up at the cross
  I see the darkest day in history
  And I guess that’s what kindness costs
  

• Chorus 2

  I’ve tried to run from Jesus
  I’ve started holy wars
  I’ve tried the patient waiting
  And the kicking down the doors
  He knows I don’t deserve it
  But He’s never changed His mind
  All He’s ever been is kind

  All He’s ever been is kind
